Music Education Internship

TCSYO is proud to sponsor a Music Educator Internship program! The internship is offered to a high school senior who has indicated their intent to enter the field of music education upon graduation. This senior will work closely with Concert Orchestra and Mrs. Herrera throughout the season, focusing on rehearsal techniques, lesson planning, conducting, score study, sectionals, and classroom management. At no time will the intern and Concert Orchestra students be left unsupervised.

Students interested in applying for the Music Educator Internship program should email admin@tcyso.org for more information.
